There are certainly more people questioning the decision to make Auckland a Super City.

This great desire to kill local democracy will not be stopped and when one listens to some of those involved in making it happen alarm bells ring.

On Laidlaws show a story included comments from a Mr Askwith, a pommie import from what appears to be the local government sector in the UK.

Comments he made such as Invercargill farmers don’t realise that Auckland  is so important to them and that the Mayor of this super city should be able to veto anything, are really quite scary. He also stated that they will replace seven muppets (mayors) for one, was a condescending and insulting comment.

Go back to the UK Mr Askwith. We don’t need you here.
